Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal by the State of Rajasthan against the High Court's order that suspended the conviction of the respondent under Sections 302 and 323 read with 34 IPC and reinstated him under Rule 19 of the Rajasthan Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1958. The Court held that the High Court exceeded its jurisdiction by reinstating the respondent without a challenge to the dismissal order, thus setting aside the High Court's order regarding reinstatement. The appeal was allowed, and the High Court's order was deemed illegal.
